Green shutters

While we were in Utah for vacation recently, we went to this little shopping area called Gardner Village, which is near Salt Lake City. Gardner Village was made up of lots of historic old buildings. This shop really caught my eye with its green shutters. I think I love the contrast of the whimsical shutters against the weathered log house. Now, if you have to ask me what the shop sold, I can't be certain. From looking at a map of the village, I think it's yarn.

Successful blogs have a narrowly defined focus and are frequently updated. This isn't one of those. Nope, this blog is all over the place -- writing, travel, dogs, social, hobbies, you name it. And frequently updated? Don't hold your breath. But it's my blog and it makes me happy.

May the blessings of light be upon you,
Light without and light within.
And in all your comings and goings,
May you ever have a kindly greeting
From them you meet along the road.
